Configure the central database for the server in your distributed deployment:
- If the Web-Service Gateway list box appears, select Add a new Web-Service Gateway.
For a new installation, the Web-Service Gateway list box does not appear. This list box only appears if another SolutionPack for Traffic Flows or other SolutionPacks are already installed.
- For the Web Service fields for a new Web-Service Gateway, replace the localhost value with the IP address of the Backend or Database server and provide the port number. Accept the default username and password.
- If the Traffic Flow SolutionPack list box appears, select Add a new Traffic Flow SolutionPack.
For a new installation, the Traffic Flow SolutionPack list box does not appear. This list box only appears if another SolutionPack for Traffic Flows or other SolutionPacks are already installed.
- For the Installation Path field, accept the default setting.
- Choose whether to enable the Optional sending of Raw Data to the Database checkbox.
Choose this option only if needed, because sending raw data to the database will decrease performance. No reports currently rely on raw data and it is completely optional.
- Accept 1 day for the Raw Data Retention Policy or adjust the value.
This field depends on the setting of the Optional sending of Raw Data to the Database checkbox.
